  • jjsignal
    JJSignal™ (@jjsignal) reported from El Cerrito, California

    @The_Katbot It was also the reason I managed to push my parents off of AOL and move on to a better ISP, since AOL required its launcher to be open to stay online. I think it was a common complaint. Before that, I would use Net Zero accounts until I was flagged as a "heavy user" good times.

    my first aol screen name was sk8rgrl91 so never had any doubt about it

    @stephendelong78 @CALWDA @JulieSuCA @CA_EDD #CAEDD Is a complete disaster. INCOMPETENCE. It’s like as if someone who has dial-up Internet, an AOL email account and thinks ctrl+alt+delete is tech support is running the IT programming Dept. @CA_EDD The “pending” glitches and lack of cust. service needs to end ! PUA, PEUC>PAY

    @AOL I feel bad for her. This guy wanted to cheat on his wife [ she didn't know he was married ] Then wanted to get rid of the problem when he was to dumb to use protection. 😐

    I straight called AOL tech support at one point to ask them how to open a “dot ZIP” file.

    I never learned to type from Mavis Beacon programs, it was using AOL instant messenger everyday after school for an hour.

    @AOL That's really sad. poor girl.🙁

    I tried to customize my Slack color scheme and it’s nothing short of appalling. Come to think of it, I never really was good at AOL color profiles, either.

    @joshelman AOL was a literal life changer for me. That dial up sound may be awful but even to this day it makes me want to go back a little

  • rod4p
    Paul Rodriguez (@rod4p) reported from San Francisco, California

    @AOL I agree. The problem is a lot of people either can't afford or have no room to store clothes. Very sad.😐

  • pkellner
    pkellner (@pkellner) reported from San Francisco, California

    @julielerman @AOL My dad asked me once why his computer was so slow. He said he had bought some software from Nigeria for a great deal that was suppose to speed it up.

    @jpawgmafia Downloading the STATE logos off of AOL online and printing them up and putting them in my room. That aged the **** out of me.

    @seeminglee @xoxogossipgita Good point. Unfortunately Flickr is one of those internet brands that can probably never be sufficiently evolved without angering a core, vocal userbase, like still existing AOL customers.

  • yasSF
    Yasmine Scallan (@yasSF) reported from San Francisco, California

    AOL! TERRIBLE! It was to mean “America On Line”! Could not keep a tech advisor complete a help request on line to resolve problems with my email. Jess said “hello, what seems to be the problem” then disappeared and I had to pay to get him on line to start! VERIZON wake up please!

  • rod4p
    Paul Rodriguez (@rod4p) reported from San Francisco, California

    @AOL poor guy. He's a nice person.🙁

    John Vantine (@w00t) reported from Oakland, California

    @mygiantrobot DMX - Ruff Ryders Anthem. Pre-Napster, there were private chat rooms on AOL where people would “serve” MP3s. So painfully slow on a 14.4 kbit/s dial-up connection. Simpler times!

    @IANdrewDiceClay I feel like the more interesting hypothetical would be if aol timer warner just never happened and wcw just went further into the 2000s same status quo, qoukd they eventually get a booker better then Eric and russo? I assume ny the time turner retires streaming era has started

    You want 90s purchasing power but aren’t ready for the trade offs - - Tupac and Biggie releasing albums - Metallica and grunge peaking - Jordan in his prime - AOL instant messenger and no cell phones - Blockbuster video rentals Okay damn nevermind

    @2whazzuup My mother still has an AOL email, so no, it will never die.

  • Crowsky13
    Crowsky📎 (@Crowsky13) reported

    @IzzatStatus The subscription model has been coming for years tbh. Remember how AOL stayed in business simply because so many people never canceled? Combined with the full erosion of ToS contracts, consumers are getting the shaft big time

    Someone decided the Adams Arcade lights are not working… with Ngong road matatus flying like they have no breaks … Aol yawa.

    @nasykuching Back in the 90s when I had AOL dial up I used to print all the fanfics I wanted to read offline bcuz our landline phone was always used by my mom to call family overseas So I think printing them out for personal use shouldn't be a problem so long as you aren't trying to profit🤔

    @theamelia___ 18 but only as there was no AOL in NL and a waterbed is something I never understood
